<h2>Import OCM2 L1B Product</h2>

<p>The Ocean Color Monitor 2 (OCM-2) instrument  is a 8-band multi-spectral camera operating in the Visible ? Near IR spectral
    range.  OCM-2 is aboard the <a href="http://www.isro.org/satellites/oceansat-2.aspx">Oceansat-2 spacecraft</a>, the second in the series of Remote Sensing satellites launched by
    the <a href ="http://www.isro.org/">Indian Space Research Organization</a> (ISRO) and is dedicated to ocean research</p>

<p>This product reader supports the OCM-2 L1B products in HDF4 format</p>

<blockquote>The reader may have poor performance when handling the internally compressed navigation data.  Using the
HDF4 utility <tt><a href ="http://www.hdfgroup.org/products/hdf4_tools/">hrepack</a></tt> to decompress the data, or re-compress with data chunking can significantly improve performance</blockquote>
